Evaluation of Association Between Testosterone Levels, Dementia, and Adverse Mental Health Outcomes

Sponsor: M.D. Anderson Cancer Center

Summary

This study evaluates the association between testosterone levels and risk of dementia and adverse mental health outcomes (e.g. depression and anxiety). It is not known whether low testosterone levels may be associated with an increased risk of dementia. Learning about the association between testosterone levels and risk of dementia may help determine the long-term effects of androgen deprivation therapy and may help improve quality of life.
